Message to DAD.......We can hardly wait until you come home and we can wrap our arms around you. We are going to have soooo much fun!!! See you Soon

Lexie is on her way to dance class. She absolutely loves to dance and she is really good at it! She is so graceful and can really feel the music. Whether the music is slow or fast she comes up with some really good moves that go with the music. We love to watch her! Keep it up Lexie!

So my girls absolutely love to play alphabet Go Fish! (It is actually a great learning tool, Jorden is learning her letters very well with the game) Anyways, we play multiple times daily and the girls love to play on their own as well. Lately they enjoy playing in unusual places. They enjoy to play under tables, in hiding spots, and of course.........well, just look at the picture and you can see where else they play! I am not sure anything else could bring more enjoyment into my life! I have the greatest girls!!

Jorden will not keep the clothes on that she is dressed in every day. She is constantly changing and usually in her underwear. She loves skirts and dresses.....and of course her swim suit! We sure love her!!

Kamree is getting so big I can't even believe it!!! She is the best little baby! She is so happy and so much fun! We love having her in our family!

JEFF COMES HOME IN ONE WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE ARE QUITE EXCITED TO SEE DADDY!! LEXIE SAYS SHE IS JUST GOING TO SCREAM SO LOUD. JORDEN SAID SHE IS GOING TO HUG HIM SO HARD. KAMREE HAS NO CLUE SHE HAS A DAD :) MOM IS SO EXCITED TO GO TO THE BATHROOM BY HERSELF FOR 2 WHOLE WEEKS....CAN'T WAIT!!

THANK YOU GRANDMA BETTY

Oh the joys of trying to get just ONE decent photo where everybody is looking at the camera and smiling at the SAME TIME!! Thanks for the pajamas Grandma!! Love you and miss you. (Jorden just found a picture of you and brought it to me and said "I go to grandma betty's house? I hug grandma!"

Lexie and Jorden were able to ride their first horse. They loved it. Lexie had a perma smile on her face the entire ride and Jorden used her favorite line, "I can do it myself"! Lexie says that horses is all she thinks about, she wants one sooo bad! They pretend to be horses all the time, put on the dog leash, walk each other around, and eat oats!! Too bad mom is deathly allergic to horses other wise we could maybe spend more time with them. Too bad :(

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Hope everybody enjoyed their turkey day. Kamree had a wonderful first turkey day because my dad gave her a turkey bone to chew on. Thanks Happy, she loves it!!

Kamree is just so cute I can't even stand it. I could just watch her play, smile, and talk all day long. Her new love is to get into the spices that my grandma has under her counter. Looks like she may be following after her sisters footsteps. She will probably be the next trouble maker in our family :)

So I gave Kamree a few pieces of candy to play with on the floor. Next thing I knew she has got one open and is eating it!! So she got her first taste of chocolate a little early but she sure enjoyed the taste! She is starting to scoot herself around now so I have to watch her carefully to make sure she is not getting into things. After I took the candy bar away she started to eat crayons that her sisters dropped on the floor. Looks like I won't be getting anything done!!

FUN AT THE PARK

This is my life......if only I had one more arm!

CUTE GIRLS!!!!

Halloween Pics.....Better late then never, right?

Jammies!!!

We all got matching pajamas! Aren't we cute!! These are from the little girl section at Target. If you are about my size then the XL will fit you! Go grab them while they last!

GOTTA LOVE THE NEW DRESSES THAT COME WITH MATCHING OUTFITS FOR THE DOLLS :)

BEST BUDS!!!

MODEL MATERIAL!!!!!

We Call Her Smiley!!!

Kids can fall asleep anywhere :)

So I am pretty sure that I have the cutest girls in the world! (sorry to all of you out there who think you have the cutest girl :) I love pictures where they are loving each other. Most of each day they do love each other which is great! Does anyone else have the problem that when your kids are wearing cute outfits you just have to take a picture? This was one of those moments for me!

Lexie said that she needed to wear gloves to school to make sure she wouldn't get any splinters! My little girl is cautious already!

So I just had to write about these awesome nails that I bought at Walmart for 5 dollars. Take them out of the box, glue them on, and they look fine if you ever want or need the fake nails look for any reason (just be careful because I almost glued 2 of my fingers together) Also, the package comes with 24 nails so if any fall off or if I want to do them another time then I have replacements. They even have toe nails you can do. (you can tell I haven't shopped this aisle for a while, or ever) Anyways, just wanted to share in the fun of my day. (nope, I don't get out much) Happy nails!!

I made some really good banana bread the other day and thought I would share the recipe. I found it online by searching for "moist banana bread recipe". Here it is:

1 c ripe bananas
1.5 c sifted flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 c butter
1 c white sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 c sour cream
1/2 c chopped walnuts (optional)

1. Mix butter, eggs, sugar, vanilla until creamy
2. Add: bananas, cinnamon...mix well
3. Add: soda, salt, sour cream, flour....mix until smooth
4. Pour into greased and floured loaf pan
5. Bake at 350 for 1 hour

Hope you enjoy!!

Tribute to the TROUBLEMAKER......Here is some bread that I was making, while it was rising, some fingers found it and went POKE!!! I wonder who did that??? Then I found Kamree with red all over her face. What could that be? The evidence of a red vine was on the floor. So some little blonde girl climbed on the counter, got a red vine, and decided to share some with her baby sister. I am not sure what I am going to do with this child! She is lucky she is so cute :)

Lexie and I had the opportunity to go to "So you think you can Dance" Top 12 tour in Reno. It was absolutely AMAZING!!! I loved every second of the show. All the dancers this year were extremely talented with great personalities. Lexie's favorite part of the show was "when the girls would spin and their hair would fly through the air"

Pumpkin Time!!! We found some great pumpkins and the girls got to get their faces painted. They picked a butterfly and a frog.

Lexie was in her first race. It was called the pumkin run. She raced against other pre-schooler girls. She got second place and won my favorite pie...pumpkin!
